  The people in this school do not know how to properly run one.The children that go here are revolting and naive.If you want you confidential paper to get lost and your child not to be prosperous please by all means send them here.This school a disappointment trust me when I say you do not want to attend this school or have you child attend.

  By far the BEST high school! My experience was overall positive and I accomplished so much during my years at HSFI.

  Classes are alright. Teachers seem like a lot of them just don't care. Too many unnecessary restrictions on trivial things. You're gonna spend your days counting down to your graduation instead of learning.

  As a teacher and graduate of this school, having been both before and behind the teachers desk, I have been fortunate to experience both sides.
  Students are given every opportunity to learn, excel and succeed provided they WANT TO. It takes more than the teacher and the parent to produce stellar students. The teenager must want to rise above and not just aim for better, BE BETTER. Our school is larger than the average school, the way schools use to be and just like LaGuardia, Bronx Science, Brooklyn Tech and Stuyvesant, it has managed to maintain a phenomenal reputation, despite the challenges. When the average passing grade for a NYC high school student is 70, our student average is 85. More than half of our student population (+1600) has an 85 or above. What does that say about its teachers and staff?
  We are a learning environment and
  our goal and focus is to teach not 'control', 'discipline', or 'regulate'. These are the focuses of a correctional facility or jail, not a school. When student come to school to learn, the rest is easy. Granted as young adults learning to become independent is not easy. I can attest to this as a former student, yet my grandmother, who was my guardian taught me well. There was nothing more important than my education. Going to school wasn't to 'kill time', 'something to do', or 'a pass time', it was and is what got me out of my past and gifted me my future.
  It is my absolute honor to be working in the same building that gave me that chance and I hope all parents and guardians continue to work with us in doing our job. Remind the kids, we do this for them, but it's useless if they don't do their part.
  And I challenge anyone that states differently.

  As a recent graduate all I have to say is that if you want your child to receive a true education and be proficient in all subjects do not send you child here. The school is very irresponsible and each year are bringing more and more kids which unfortunately leads them into just throwing you in a "whatever" class because of the limited space. There are very few teachers here that are good teachers and that truly seem to enjoy educating others but many of the others only revolve around favoritism and don't really seem to care if you are not learning. This school is good in the area that you get to experience majoring in either fashion design, art, fashion marketing, or visual merchandising and allows you to figure out if it is truly your passion before you go on to college. But I do not feel like I received the education that one should have and wish I would've went to a stricter school that did not let students run wild with about 15 girls a period cutting class in the bathrooms and leaving it filthy.
